SALZER’S ONION SETS 
Planting' our Hardy Northern Grown Onion Sets reduces the 
amount of labor to a minimum, the crop is surer to grow and 
is ready for use several weeks in advance of that grown from 
seed. In fact, the ideal way is to use both sets and seeds—the 
sets to grow spring and summer onions, and the seed to grow 
onions for late fall and winter use. A pound or two is sufficient 
for a small family. 10 bushels plant an acre.

EBENEZER OR “JAPANESE”—£j, "t w has" S'.V- 
come extremely popular in only a few years. While it 
may be raised from seed, its chief value lies in producing 
very early onions from sets. People who know this onion 
will have no other kind for their own table use. The 
onions are round, yellow skinned, pure white fleshed 
and are far superior in flavor and keeping qualities to 
any other onion. In fact, it keeps almost the year around. 
Remarkably mild and tender, and a prodigious yielder.

Salzer’s Extra-Hardy Onion Plants 
The use of Salzer’s Onion Plants is no longer an experiment. Salzer’s Onion Plants are being used more and 
more widely each year by commercial growers, and we strongly recommend them for the home gardener and for 
the market gardener. They are inexpensive, they can be set out early and in addition the plants grow well-shaped 
onions and onions that keep as good as those grown from sets. 
You can have extremely early green onions for pulling and you can have fine, large, mature 6nions about 2 
weeks earlier than can be had from sets and very much earlier than from seed. Also, onions from plants sel¬ 
dom run' to seed, which is a big advantage to growers. You can set these plants out just as soon as you can 
get them into the ground—the same as with cabbage plants. This 
means that you’ll get earlier crops of fully developed and larger 
onions—the very first onions for your own table use or the very 
earliest onidns that bring the top prices at market. Please state on 
your order about what date we shall send ypur onion plants.
